We're only now seeing the first Pineview netbooks - based on Intel's next-gen Atom platform - begin to show themselves, but details are already emerging about the silicon company's intentions for the platform after that. Come 2011, say Fudzilla, Intel are expected to out Cedarview, a 32nm processor with a new, DDR3-compatible memory controller.

That DDR3 compatibility is particularly interesting, as it will put Atom's RAM support on a par with what Intel's Core i7 - Bloomfield processors can utilize. However Intel will limit supported memory to single-channel sticks, though you'll at least be able to use two DIMMs; that, say Fuzdilla, is confirmed for the nettop platform, but it's likely to be the same situation for netbooks.

Last we heard, the rumor-pipes were whistling that Intel planned to officially out their Atom N450 processor in Q1 2010. Now, Fudzilla are reporting that the actual launch date for the 1.66GHz chip will be January 3rd, and in fact be a significant day on the Intel calendar for several new chipset arrivals.

Lenovo wants the limelight today, it seems. At least this time around we're not hearing talks they're going to buy up another company. Nope, this time we've got a good ol' netbook. It's good to be doing what you do best, right, Lenovo? (That's probably debatable, but let's not focus on that, shall we?) Lenovo has officially announced an updated netbook for the US region, and it's called the IdeaPad S10-3s. Thankfully, the price tag isn't as big as the name.

When it comes to using something like a laptop or netbook, you can't always have your gadget plugged in. That, kind of, defeats the purpose of having a laptop or netbook. And, because you can't always have it plugged in, making sure that your battery life is actually worthy of the effort is essential. And while many netbooks and laptops out there have the more traditional 3-cell battery, which usually gets you out the front door, the industry is starting to change the way they think. Take the Samsung N230, for example.

Lenovo's all-in-one C200 was among the roll-call of machines using the second-gen NVIDIA Ion GPU, and the company have finally launched it. Centered around an 18.5-inch 16:9 display - with an optional touchscreen layer - the Lenovo C200 has a choice of Intel Atom processors and a standard DVD burner; Ion graphics are optional. Meanwhile the C200 has also brought a friend in the shape of the Lenovo IdeaPad S10-3s netbook, a slimmer version of the previous S10-3 complete with Ion.

In the grand scheme of netbooks, Hercules probably isn't a name you associate with budget ultraportables; the company is taking their first step into the market with the eCAFÉ EC-1000W. A 10-inch Atom N270 machine, there's little on the spec list that makes the EC-1000W stand out among the rank and rile, so is this yet another me-too model or a netbook worth considering? Check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.

While Lenovo have long offered tablet PCs in their ThinkPad range, CES 2010 saw the surprising debut of several more consumer-focused touchscreen devices. The Lenovo IdeaPad S10-3t lacks the eye-catching removable display of its U1 sibling, but still promises the company's legendary build quality along with the benefits of capacitive multitouch. Does the IdeaPad S10-3t tick all our tablet boxes? Check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.

Remember the three leaked ASUS Eee PC models from last week, the 1015P, 1016P and 1018P? ASUS have delivered on all three, and while we've already seen live shots of the super-slim Eee PC 1018P Prime, we thought you might like more details on the other two machines. The ASUS Eee PC 1015P has the same white plastic styling as previous "Seashell" netbooks from the company, but throws in a 14hr 6-cell 63Wh battery and Intel's latest Atom N450, N455, N470 and N475 processors.

Packed full of Intel's latest Pine View processors and NVIDIA's second-gen Ion chipset, the ASUS Eee PC 1201PN is the netbook for those who reckon 10-inch machines are just too small. The 1201PN has a 12.1-inch 1366 x 768 LED-backlit display, Intel Atom N450 1.66GHz processor and 1GB of RAM, along with a 160GB hard-drive (and 500GB of online ASUS web storage) and the HD-capable GPU.

It comes as no surprise to see Lenovo launch their latest netbooks, the Lenovo IdeaPad S10-3 and S10-3t, since we've already caught sight of the latter squeezing through the FCC complete with a multitouch display. That display, Lenovo say, makes the S10-3t the industry's first convertible netbook to use a capacitive, multitouch-capable screen; both models have a 10.1-inch 16:9 display, along with a choice of Intel's Atom N450 1.66GHz or - when it hits the market later in 2010 - Atom N470 1.83GHz processors.
